Nicole

“I tutor because I love helping students find those “light bulb” moments where they feel like math clicks and they understand what they’re doing. I love when I am able to support a student alongside their classroom teacher and give the extra support they need to find success. It’s much easier to slow down and focus on areas where a student needs extra time in a one-on-one setting. It’s also a great exercise (for both tutor and student) in patience, persistence, and learning & communication styles!”

Keoni NG

“I tutor because I love to help students grow better every day and find the true meaning to why they want to learn about the world. As a language learner and a teacher with ESL experience, I understand through first hand experience the struggles of trying to grasp a concept I can’t understand. The ability to help students through this struggle and better themselves is something that pushes me to be the best teacher I can be. I really enjoy one on one environments with students because my teaching style lends itself well to having a genuine conversation with the student while they learn. Because of this I can help teach students not only reading and writing, but also social studies, history, and a variety of other subjects.

Carole EDWARDS

“I love to see the ‘AHA’ moments when students are connecting with the material – not just because they got the right answer, but because they truly understand the concepts and steps necessary to get there. I invite students to watch, learn, practice and reflect on the lesson. I like to go over what was easy wand what was difficult, working together through the tough spots and giving lots of encouragement and positive feedback. The one-on-one or small group environment lends itself nicely to personalized tutoring and support. I enjoy getting to know each student while customizing the lessons and helping them apply what they’ve just learned.
